My current approach is to get everything from SYSADATA, using ASMADATA to map 
everything.

I want to sort on name rather than location.

The HLASM XREF facility is too coarse-grained.
I once added an XREF facility to a compiler
(not HLASM) as not a parameter but as a set of
pseudo-operations. They provided local control
so that XREF(SHORT) could be in effect in contexts
such as library copy members but XREF(FULL) in
such as open code, displaying inadvertently
unreferenced symbols.

I didn't think of sorting by location in the
source code, but that would have been useful.

Could the needed information be extracted
from ASNADATA?
